The Sand that Burns. The Rain that Bites. - Paperback

by Hannah Afzal (Author)

""This book is a collection of poetry, or even a collection of ramblings from experiences in my life, exploring themes such as identity loss, friendship, grief, love, growth and courage. Being raised in Scotland, whilst being of Pakistani heritage, I seem to have lost my way whilst navigating adulthood. This book is my attempt of trying to find my bearings. I find it challenging to express myself through vocalization and so writing it down in the form of poetry is my only way of truly being heard. Each poem is based on something I've seen, heard or felt throughout my life - moments that were significant enough for me to remember till this day and influence my life to some extent. I hope people will read this book and find they can relate to certain stories, essentially showing maybe we aren't so different after all.""
